Chapter 646: Big Brother’s Kindness
Xun Xiang first looked for her grandfather in the crowd. He was the guest of honor today and sat in the middle.
Seeing her grandfather and parents, Xun Xiang's eyes were also hot.
In this life, she has never lacked their company and love in her growth process...
Sun Yumu was also in high spirits.
The little girl with a bun has grown into a beautiful lady, and will marry her in the near future...
Ren Zixuan combed Xun Xiang's hair for a few times and put the comb down.
The main guest, Princess Qing, stood up to wash her hands, accompanied by Princess Dongyang and Zhang.
Xun Xiang sat facing east again, and the official Mi Honglan presented her with a robe and a hairpin.
Princess Qing walked in front of Xun Xiang and sang loudly, "On this auspicious day of this month, I will wear the first clothes..."
Then she knelt down to comb Xun Xiang's hair and put on the hairpin.
Xun Xiang stood up and went back to the east side room. Ren Zixuan took the clothes from Mi Honglan's hand and went to the side room to change clothes for Xun Xiang.
Xun Xiang came out of the room again, and she was different from before. Her skin was as white as cream, her eyebrows were delicate, she was bright and beautiful, and she was graceful, and she also brought a pleasant fragrance...
One bow, two additions, two bows, three additions, wine, offerings, listening to instructions, the hairpin-wearing lady bowed to thank, and the ceremony was over.
After a series of procedures, it was noon.
Xun Xiang completed the gorgeous transformation from a girl to a young woman in front of everyone.
After lunch, the guests went to the east and west wings to drink tea and laugh.
Several girls and young wives who played well with Xun Xiang laughed and talked with Xun Xiang in the east room.
Tao Jing's belly was already very big. She laughed softly, "When Xiangxiang got her hairpin, I saw that Ding's grandfather and Mrs. Ding were both in tears, and Ding's eyes were red."
Zhang Ziyan laughed, "Fortunately, Xiangxiang got married here. If she got married in Ding's house, they would be even more reluctant."
Xun Xiang laughed, "Don't look at my grandfather and father who look rough and heroic, they are the most emotional."
I think the word "emotional" is too modern, and then said, "They are the most emotional and value love and righteousness. The two brothers of the Ding family are the same, especially the eldest brother, who is most like my grandfather.
"When I was three years old, the Jiaozi Shop came to rob me. My grandfather cut off three fingers for me. My eldest brother went to the escort agency when he was just ten years old. He vowed to be a good escort and protect his family and me..."
Xun Xiang talked about all the good things about Ding Lichun.
Zhang liked Ren Zixuan very much, saying that she was beautiful and gentle, and would be a good wife for Ding Lichun. But the girl's family was too good. Her uncle was a duke and her father was a governor. The girl was fifteen years old and still hadn't been engaged. I heard that she was very picky. .
After coming to Beijing, many families proposed marriage, but none of them were suitable...
Zhang didn't have the courage to ask someone to mediate, thinking that she couldn't afford it.
Xun Xiang was not so pessimistic.
Although her family was born as a blacksmith, the Ding family had a good family tradition. Her brother was tall and handsome, responsible, loyal to his feelings, and the prince, who was both civil and military, had a bright future, much better than many children of aristocratic families.
Moreover, Ren Ziyu also joined the Imperial Guards and had fun with Ding Lichun and Sun Yumu. Very good, several people often go out for dinner and drinks together...
When Xun Xiang said that the eldest brother was good, Ren Zixuan's eyes sparkled. Moreover, today, Mrs. Ren and Ren Zixuan looked at Ding Lichun several times.
Maybe there is a way!
Xun Xiang told the story as a joke about how she urged her father to spend a lot of money to buy jewelry for her mother, and her father was afraid that she would ask for help, and her grandfather criticized her father for being useless.
"Even my grandmother said that my grandfather was a rare good man and he was loyal to his feelings. My eldest brother is most like my grandfather. Whoever marries my eldest brother will be blessed..."
Everyone was very happy.
Ding Zhuang was the talk of the town, not only because he raised the emperor's granddaughter and turned her into a phoenix overnight, but also because he was rude and trouble-making, and because he doted on Xun Xiang and was devoted to his first wife.
Except Ding Zhen, the other girls were from aristocratic families. They had many concubines, but none of them wanted their husbands to be devoted to their wives like Ding Zhuang.
Mi Honglan smiled and said, "Yes, I also heard a lot about the old Earl Chengyi from my eldest sister. When the old Marquis Dong and the old lady Dong were alive, he was the most respected person. "
At the beginning of the afternoon, the guests left one after another.
The six people from the Ding family did not leave, and went into the upper room with Xun Fu Ma, Dongyang, and Xun Yi Bo.
As soon as he saw Xun Xiang, Ding Zhuang couldn't bear to leave his eyes, and he smiled until his eyes disappeared.
"Xiangxiang is a big girl now, and she is even more beautiful. "
Xun Xiang pulled his sleeve and said coquettishly, "No matter how old she is, she is still your granddaughter."
Ding Zhuang and Zhang also wanted to see their daughter more, but they held back in front of Dongyang.
The two families had dinner in Ziyuan before the Ding family left.
On the way back to Qijin Hall, Dongyang said to Xun Fu Ma, "Xiang Xiang has been back for five years, but she is still closer to the Ding family than to us. We are the closest."
The tone was sour.
Xun Fu Ma said, "We should feel happy and joyful. Their closeness shows that Xiang Xiang is happy and happy in that family. I dare say that if Xiang Xiang grew up in this mansion, she would not be as happy and free as she was in the Ding family.
"Alas, my daughter has reached the age of marriage and is about to get married, but I haven't raised her for a few years and missed the time when I should have protected her the most..."
Dongyang said hurriedly, "I also like a soft daughter."
"Then be nicer to her and be gentler. After she gets married, she will not only miss the Ding family, but also our family."
After hearing this, Dongyang felt a little sad. He really couldn't bear to part with his daughter.
Suggested, "I heard that Xiangxiang's furniture is almost ready. Let's go and take a look."
Prince Consort Xun also became interested, and the two walked to the front yard again.
After Xun Xiang finished washing, she let her hair down, changed into a white silk dress and walked out of the bathroom. Jin'er's voice came from outside.
"Princess, Feifei and Shuangshuang are back."
The two little things flew away the day before yesterday morning, and no one knew where they went.
Now they not only go to the Sun family, Ding family, and Qiu family to visit, but also go to the mountains outside Beijing to hunt.
Xun Xiang walked out happily and saw Feifei and Shuangshuang standing in the yard. Feifei held a sandalwood comb in her mouth, and there was a note in the bamboo tube of her right leg.
Xun Xiang took out the note, which turned out to be the handwriting of the little monk, and it read:
Xiangxiang, I know who I am. It turns out that I have a father and a family, and I have no choice but to become a monk. It turns out that you and I are really relatives, but I am not your brother, but your uncle.
Incredible, right? I secretly called you "sister" for many years, but it's a pity that I can't celebrate your birthday today.
This is a comb carved by me, I wish you a happy birthday.
Xun Xiang laughed out loud and silently called out, "Uncle Xiaoba."
He will be back soon.
Xun Xiang took the comb and looked at it carefully. It was carved with a peony with winding branches, which was very delicate.
The young boy also has this skill.
"Gugugugu", Shuangshuang called gently a few times.
Xun Xiang leaned over and smoothed its fur again, "Let's talk after taking a bath."
I am happy today, and I also want to make them happy and give them some benefits.
Jin'er and the newly promoted second-class maid Sha'er carried Feifei and Shuangshuang to wash.
